Oh fucking hell, would you look at that! I've only just noticed this because I can't bare to watch the video for too long
They are doing what they did in 1996... at the end of Backwater going from B to sustaining the A whilst Richie does the Mystery Song intro... All out of new ideas? not surprised to say the least

Watched the 2013 Backwater from hammys Saturday gig a million times simply because its brilliant/the crowds brilliant and ever time theres this buzz while watching it ,but this version of backwater and the make believe band just do nothing.

Holy F&*k!
Even ignoring Rhino's vocal efforts here, the song sounds piss poor and weak as f#@k. I can't even find myself bobbing my head to it, let alone rocking out. Put that up against Backwater 2014 or 2103 with the real Quo and you have a shot through the heart reminder how low this CQ effort have sunk.
Goddamit. Pub band they have become.
Terrible

Backwater in 1996 and 2001/2002 was better than that.
There's not even any power in it. It's dull, weak, soulless....Urgh

Vocals not quite as horrific as on Rain but I've watched a few songs from the Raalte gig and on everyone the guitar sound is terrible, videos from different uploaders so it must actually have been the live sound, Francis's green creation in particular sounds synth like quite a few times. The only positive is Richie is higher in the mix now and Andy is playing out of his skin as per.

The heavily modified Tele with a Marshall started to sound a bit ZZ Top processed and syrupy/hi fi in later years but the recent "Green Creation" is something else.....it's sounded bl**dy awful since he got it....probably waited weeks and paid 1000s to get a sound like a teenager with his first Kay guitar and a Guyatone fuzz pedal.... The classic Telecaster/Vox AC30 sound is now a distant memory....

Utter shite....sorry to offend but it's shocking really, Rhino has written enough songs to play live, so why cover a AL Quo song....I know some like the current line up but sadly it's not for me.
